Here Comes Summer...Enjoy!

Hello Crafty Friends,
 
Today brings a new challenge at Exploring Cricut.
 
The Challenge...Here Comes Summer
 
Here is my Design Team project...
I decided to make treat bags for my students for the last day of school. I had asked to loop with my group, but I was told the other day that I will be staying in 4th grade. Not a problem! The next group will be a challenge, but who said teaching was easy? I will be able to "Enjoy Summer" before worrying. 
The perfect candy for summer...Sour Patch Watermelons and Lemon Heads. Time to pucker up those lips! Found them at Walgreens.
 Each bag has at least an individual serving (15 - 20 pieces). Time to get some more of these bags since I have been making treats for my students. A trip to the flea market will be planned next weekend...100 bags for $2 - $4 depending on the booth that is open.
 Busy cutting out all the pieces and adhering them together.
Watermelons
 Shining Suns
Materials:
pink, green, black, yellow, and white card stock
Doodlecharms Cricut cartridge ~ watermelon (p. 98) cut at 2 1/4"
Create a Critter Cricut cartridge ~ sun (p. 52) cut at 2 3/4"
Docerela stamp ~ Summertime 
black ink
candy (as shown above)
plastic zip bags ~ 3" X 4"
 
Hope you will join us this week at Exploring Cricut for our "Here Comes Summer" challenge.
 
Stay Creative,
Georgiana

    I bet you are so ready for some summer vacation to rest and recharge before next year! I love your treat bags-so cute and perfect for your students. I know my kiddos are champing at the bit for school to be over, but we had so many snow days, we have to go into June this year.
